Abstract content
The energy region above the knee is studied through the e.m. and muon detectors at the GAMMA experiment (Mt. Aragats). We present analysis of the truncated number of muons shower size and other muon characteristics vs shower size and primary energy. The muon size spectrum for the muon energy threshold 5 GeV is also presented. The data are interpreted by means of simulations based on the CORSIKA-SYBILL model.
